Asked by Mr. Jimmy Yeo
Dear professionals, I am currently staying in a HDB 4A and have made plans to upgrade to a EA to have bigger space for my growing up children. I have started viewing some units by myself and has shortlisted a unit which I'm very interested to make an offer. However I have not engaged any agents to market for the sale of my 4A yet.
1) As I do not want to miss out on this EA unit, what are the procedures and options available for me to buy 1st before selling? Can I sign and exercise OTP for the EA unit before I even sold my 4A? Seller is only doing a pure selling so timeline is not an issue.
2) I also understand there's a contra facility option to sell & buy at the same time, will it be applicable in my situation (buy 1st then sell)?
3) Will I be able to get an 80% loan for the purchase of the EA? I still have outstanding loan for my 4A. Hope to receive some advice for my enquiries, thank you.
